Beyond remote control and network management, smart home ecosystems allow users to create custom automations that can save time and money. For example, you might want an automation that intelligently turns the lights on when you arrive home, and turns them back off when you depart. Or, an automation that turns on your security cameras when you’re away and flips them off for privacy when you’re back might come in handy. Up until now, creating Google Home automations required a basic understanding of supported starters, conditions, and actions.
